Sex factoid of the week: Men are fakers.
May 26th, 2007 by HeywoodSo I’ve been nominated by my fellow ‘Dillas (well, at least one of them, anyway) to grace y’all with at least one interesting sex fact a week. So here it is.
Men fake orgasm.
And before you start in with the jokes (and the inevitable questions), let me just point what we’re not talking about a few of them. A lot of them. Like a majority of them. In a survey that hubby and I did for our new book, What Men Really Want in Bed, 52 percent of the guys who responded admitted to faking it.
Their reasons? They were tired. Drunk. They knew “it” wasn’t going to happen, and they didn’t want to disappoint their partner. Sound familiar, ladies? (OK, I know, not to all of you. This blogger, for instance, has never faked it once in her checkered history. The reasons are numerous, and not really your bidness. Wait for the memoir.)
Anyway, when I tell people this fact, the question they always ask, agog, is: “How?” C’mon, folks. Use your imagination. In the era of safe sex, it isn’t hard to avoid the tell-tale wet spot.
So guys, ‘fess up. That’s what the comments section is for. Knock yourselves out.

Awesome article!!
Me: no.
In one relationship, the orgasms were real but the entire relationship was fake.
Does that count?

I’m no guy, but don’t think I’ve ever been nice enough to fake it! I mean, faking it takes some sort of “trying to not hurt the others person’s feelings” kind of attitude doesn’t it?!

I’ve faked it before. The girl I was with was terrible in the sack. I had to get out of there quick.

I’ve faked it. Numerous times. Sometimes you do things to make your partner happy, and in their cases (yes, multiple girls), it was getting off.
As an aside, i also have ED caused by illness (Diabetes), so when I could sense my penis wasn’t gonna continue, I’d act like I was having a hardcore earthquake orgasm. She’d usually be on number 3 or 4 by this time, so she got what she wanted, and was usually waiting for me to finish (not that she was complaining that I went that long).
As the post script: I’m no longer with her, and my fake-orgasming penis now is collecting dust, but every time it gets brought out of retirement, it does it’s job… unfortunately, i’ve yet to meet a girl than can hold up their end of the deal. Not one yet has gotten me off without me finishing the deal by whacking off.
How’s that for a twist.
